Just read this and had to share. This was written by a Phoenix Coyotes fan back in 1996 when an presumably intoxicated NHL executive decided that the Winnipeg Jets would be better off in Phoenix, Arizona! Go Coyotes!? LOL. Don't worry dude, they'll be gone faster than you can spell KARMA!
Read on! Shame on Winnipeg Larry Cottle Apr 22 1996, 3:00 am I can really understand the people of Winnipeg being upset that the Jets are leaving. I'm looking forward to going to NHL games. I've been a roadrunner fan since the '70s when we were in the WHA. What I can't understand is why you blame anyone other than yourselves. Here's some advice should you ever get another NHL team: 1. Sell out every game 2. Build a decent arena, not like that little rattrap I saw on Fox Sunday 3. Don't make an ass out of yourselves on television by booing another country's National Anthem 4. Improve your climate. What millionaire athlete in his right mind would want to freeze his ass off in Canada when he could sit by the pool and play golf in Phoenix. (you have heard of golf, right? It's a sport played in countries where they have this thing called grass) 5. Improve your economy. Why would anyone want to be paid in that monopoly money you guys call currency? 6. If you're not putting enough butts in the seats, consider getting a decent logo and color scheme. Look at the Ducks, people all over the country who never heard of hockey are buying them like crazy. Predictions are that the Coyotes will sell more merchandise in the next twelve months than the Jets have for the last twelve years. Merchandising=money. 7. When you get a new arena, make sure it has some luxury suites in it so all the local industries can buy them up for $100k/year and entertain guests. (You DO have some industry, don't you?) 8. GET OVER IT. YOU HAD A GOOD THING GOING AND _YOU_ BLEW IT!!! GO COYOTES!!!!!!!Posted via email from Markham Real Estate Today with Asif Khan
